Course Curriculum

Hong-Sau Technique of Meditation
The Hong-Sau Technique of Concentration helps to develop one’s latent powers of concentration. Through practice of this technique one learns to withdraw thought and energy from outward distractions so that it may be focused on any goal — whether solving a problem at hand or realizing the Divine Consciousness within.
Energization Exercises
The Energization Exercises are a set of 39 exercises which can instantly recharge the human body with an unlimited supply of cosmic energy. These exercises are Paramhansa Yogananda’s unique contribution to the Science of Yoga.
Raja Yoga Philosophy
Paths of Yoga, Ashtanga Yoga, Yama and Niyama, Affirmations and Habits, Energy and Magnetism, and Signs of Spiritual Progress.
Guided Meditations
Guided meditations can help you bring more calmness, joy and energy into your daily life. They help you meditate with greater ease, especially when practiced with the magnetism and support of a group — group energy is extremely beneficial to individual sadhana.
Personal Guidance and Support
All our experienced kriya yoga meditation practitioners will guide your learning journey via WhatsApp as well as in‑person class support.
Course Material
You will receive two books for this course — Lessons in Meditation and The Art and Science of Raja Yoga.

What Students Say
“This practice truly is like magic. Hong‑Sau and Raja Yoga cleanse our nervous system and bring changes into our lives that are not temporary, but permanent. Thanks to these practices, my temperament has become remarkably calm. About 90% of my impulsive reactions have been filtered out, and I now respond with much greater composure and calmness. 🙏”
Tarang Chhatrola

“Hong‑Sau practice has brought significant change in me. I felt very peaceful and centered initially and now it has become a part of me. Raja Yoga classes added depth to many of my knowings. These are like my Toolkit — whenever I feel off, I activate these tools. 😃 I cannot thank Ananda Sangha enough. Grateful! 😇✨”
Krishna Patel
Ahmedabad
“Before I joined the course, my mind was full of worries and anxiousness. The Hong‑Sau technique helped anchor my breath and connect me to higher energies. Then came Raja Yoga — Patanjali’s Ashtanga yoga, correct diet, healing, affirmations and connection with Guru 🙏🏻. What surprised me most was how it showed up in real life — responding instead of reacting, more calmness, better sleep. It feels great being with such a good, motivational spiritual family.”
